Can problems arise from mixing units? My page is defined in cm and images in
px.

Thanks,

Luke

It should not be a problem to mix units. However, I've seen a number of 
times recently when FOP developers indicate that pictures should never 
be defined using 'px'. Rather they should be defined using 'cm', 'mm', 
'in'. I believe the thinking is something to the effect of: 'px' is 
resolution dependent, whereas 'cm', 'mm',  'in' are not.
